Wednesday, September 30th: The Moon moves through sensual and willful Taurus all day.

The Moon sextiles Neptune, 2:15 AM: This combination of planets provides for a good night’s sleep and pleasant dreams. If you are awake, this is a perfect time for writing, or utilizing your creative talents.

The Moon trines Jupiter, 7:15 AM: We feel very positive this morning as we start our day. Be careful that you don’t over-commit yourself today. This is a great day to contact existing clients and remind them of your services.

The Sun conjuncts Mercury, 9:38 AM: Talk, talk, talk, and we still want to talk some more! With Mercury retrograde, this is a productive day to connect with people that you haven’t communicated with in a while. We are especially analytical and can potentially take that way too far. We are also likely to be a little edgy and nervous, so slow down and take a deep breath. For those of you who are astrology buffs, this is the midpoint of the Mercury retrograde cycle.

The Moon trines Pluto, 10:53 AM: If you can pull yourself away from what you have been doing, it is a useful time to get back on track with your workday schedule. Our positive and upbeat mood continues throughout the rest of the day. The energy of this transit is a favorable time for both solving problems and instituting changes that avoid the problem altogether.

All times are CDT.

Tuesday, September 29th: The Moon starts the day in Aries, but she does turn void-of-course in Aries, at 2:45 AM. She enters grounded Taurus, at 1:57 PM, and is no longer void-of course. This is an 11-hour Moon void-of-course time.

The Moon trines Venus, 2:45 AM: The energy of this aspect makes for a pleasant night of sleeping and sweet dreams. If you are awake, you may want some sort of snack.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Aries, at 2:45 AM.

The Moon enters Taurus, at 1:57 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. With the Moon void-of-course in the earlier part of the day, it is better to plan your more important activities after 1:57 PM. Keep a steady pace. Slow and steady wins the race today.

The Moon trines Mars, 6:51 PM: We are more active in the latter part of the day, but we are still mainly focused on satisfying our own internal urges. This is an enjoyable time to be with friends online, or out having dinner in a very low-key place with a lot of creature comforts.

All times are CDT.

Monday, September 28th: The Moon transits Aries, the sign of the warrior, for the entire day.

The Moon opposes Mercury, 5:32 AM: The morning is busy and you are going to be up early this morning. Be sure to give yourself plenty of extra time to get to work, and arrive at those appointments free of stress. Stay flexible, adjust to changing situations, and do not be so overly committed to your initial goal.

The Moon squares Pluto, 10:56 AM: We take out the emotional garbage this mid-morning. We may feel as though we are being judged by others around us, even if they aren’t judging us. Get to the heart of what is bugging you, and deal with it. A direct approach is what is best.

The Moon conjuncts Uranus, 8:30 PM: By the evening time, we desire to be free of any obligations, entanglements, or expectations; real or imagined! Make certain you are where you want to be, and are doing what you want to do!

All times are CDT.

Sunday, September 27th: The day begins with the Moon void-of-course in Pisces. She enters persistent Aries in the afternoon, at 2:29 PM, and is no longer void-of-course.

The day may have a slow start, but the Moon entering Aries will re-energize us. Evening time is full of energy due to the Full Moon and the Lunar Eclipse. Plan your more important activities in the latter half of the day.

The Moon trines Saturn, 3:39 PM: This is a very good time to tackle any projects around the house, especially with Mercury retrograde. Try to keep your projects manageable.

The Moon opposes the Sun, 9:50 PM: This is the Full Moon in Aries−Libra, and it is also a Lunar Eclipse. As with all full moons, our emotional response level is more sensitive than usual. But during an eclipse, those energies are magnified. The Aries−Libra axis is about maintaining a sense of our self, while being able to smoothly integrate relationships with others. The eclipse is likely to point out to us areas in our life where either of those initiatives is not being honored. This evening, all of us are likely to be more reactive than usual.

All times are CDT.

Saturday, September 26th: The Moon resides in spiritually-centered Pisces for the entire day; but she does turn void-of-course, at 11:32 AM, and remains so for the remainder of the day. Get your more important activities taken care of before lunch.

The Moon conjuncts Neptune, 3:11 AM: This is a perfect aspect for sleeping! Enjoy!

The Moon opposes Jupiter, 6:39 AM: We still feel the after-shocks from yesterday as we move slowly to complete our errands and accomplish our agendas. At least we feel more positive about the outcome. Be sure to give yourself some extra nurturing time this morning.

The Moon sextiles Pluto, 11:32 AM: We finally feel more grounded and more in control of our life and emotions. This is a useful time to take care of errands, or do chores around the house. If you are at work, you are getting plenty of stuff done!

The Moon is now void-of-course in Pisces, at 11:32 AM, and will remain so until she enters Aries, at 2:29 PM, on Sunday afternoon. This is an approximate 27-hour long Moon void-of-course time.

During the Moon void-of-course in Pisces, allow yourself to be guided by how you feel, rather than what people think or what they expect of you. Make certain you are around people that are caring and nurturing as you will be extra sensitive.

All times are CDT.

Friday, September 25th: The day begins with the Moon void-of-course in Aquarius; but she enters cause-oriented Pisces, at 2:44 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. Give yourself plenty of extra time to get to where you are going today. Conditions should improve after the Moon enters Pisces.

Venus, planet of love and money, is now moving in direct motion at a steady pace. And, if Mercury were not retrograde, I would say it would be a prime time to move forward and make commitments. We just need to delay our decisions until after October 15th, when Mercury will be back up to speed.

Pluto, planet of release and rebirth turns Stationary Direct, at 1:55 AM. Pluto, moving in forward motion, is a time to continue to uncover and face our psychological fears and blocks. By venturing into the dark, and integrating our apprehension, we become a more whole human being and are not afraid of our own power. Pluto always lets you know that nothing lasts forever, and transformation is a real physical process.

The Moon enters Pisces, at 2:44 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. As the Moon enters Pisces, we are definitely feeling raw and edgy. Keep your commitments and your expectations very light, this Friday afternoon and evening.

The Moon opposes Mars, 3:30 PM: Our emotions are right on the surface this afternoon, and we could easily be acting or overreacting to people and events around us. All of us will take things much more personally today, and you just cannot avoid it. If you can get some time to yourself, this is a much needed time for a walk or a meditation.

The Moon squares Saturn, 3:40 PM: We feel underappreciated and overworked when these two planets connect. Surround yourself with people that are supportive, and avoid those that only want more and give less. Do not over think things when these two planets connect. Do what you can in the moment and move on.

Mars squares Saturn, 8:12 PM: And here is the culprit for our edgy, judgmental, and feeling oppressed energy. One of the reasons these planets do not always play well together is because Mars wants things done yesterday, and Saturn wants them done exactly right, no errors! With the energy of this aspect having been in effect for the last couple of days, and continuing to be in effect for the next three or four days, give yourself plenty of latitude in scheduling appointments, and in trying to drive to work. This is not a fortuitous time to be asking for favors; asking your boss for a raise; or expecting other people to heap praise upon you. Be sure to give yourself plenty of positive emotional strokes, even if others are not aware of the fabulous job you are doing. Look for other days to be happy and gay!

All times are CDT.

Thursday, September 24th: The Moon resides in inventive Aquarius all day; but she does turn void-of-course, at 11:02 PM, and remains so for the brief remainder of the day.

The Moon trines Mercury, 11:08 AM: Our morning should go reasonably well, but be prepared for unexpected delays. Give yourself plenty of time to get to where you are going. Even though people are friendly this morning, there is still a bit of tension and air.

Mercury squares Pluto, 5:32 PM: With these two planets having been in aspect for the last couple of days, our communication with others has been much more pointed and direct. During this aspect, words can be a powerful tool, a powerful weapon. Many ideas and views you express will be challenged by others during this time. What you say must have truth behind it. If you find you are wrong, accept that, integrate the new idea, and continue to move forward. Do not get into a power struggle trying to defend a position that you do not even believe in. That is just an outward expression of our fear of being wrong and embarrassed. Open your mind to new ideas.

Traffic could be especially horrible so you should expect delays, and possible rescheduling of some event you are planning to attend. The energy of this aspect continues to be in effect for the next couple of days.

The Moon sextiles Uranus, 9:04 PM: We finally get a break from some of the intensity we have been feeling throughout the entire day. It is an opportune evening to avoid obligations of any sort. Live in the present and enjoy your life!

Mars, the planet that rules the muscles and the metal iron, enters Virgo, at 9:18 PM, for a 7-week stay. Mars in Virgo is a time for paying attention to your health, improving your relationships with your coworkers, and taking your dog out for more walks. People will be expecting a greater degree of exactness from you.

The Moon opposes Venus, 11:02 PM: This is a wonderful evening to be with that special someone. And, if you cannot do that, then have a piece of German Chocolate Angel pie. This is a nice evening to chill out on the couch watching your favorite movie.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Aquarius, at 11:02 PM, and will remain so until she enters Pisces, at 2:44 PM, on Friday afternoon.

All times are CDT.

Wednesday, September 23rd: Today is Yom Kippur. The day begins with the Moon void-of-course in Capricorn. She enters freedom-seeking Aquarius, at 12:51 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. Try to plan your more important events after lunchtime.

The Sun enters Libra, at 3:21 AM. This is the Autumnal Equinox, the first day of autumn. With the Sun in Libra, all of us will be focused more on our relationships; whether business, personal, or social. Along with Mercury currently retrograding in Libra, this is going to be 30 days of review of how well those relationships are doing.

And with the Moon void-of-course, we may not have a very clear agenda until after lunch.

The Moon enters Aquarius, at 12:51 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. We definitely feel more grounded.

The Moon trines the Sun, 1:34 PM: When these two planets combine, it is a positive time for almost any kind of activity. If you are working, this is a beneficial time to meet with existing clients, or to do some volunteer work in your community.

The Moon sextiles Saturn, 1:34 PM: Our productive day is enhanced by the energy of this planetary combination, and we stay on track with our agenda.

The Sun sextiles Saturn, 1:36 PM: Since these two planets have been connected, we have been more serious and thoughtful about how we are conducting our life. We are instinctively looking for ways to improve what we are doing; and we continue to plan ahead so that we can feel as safe and secure as possible in the future. This is an especially supportive time to be able to come to terms with expectations from your place of work, your friends, and even your lovers. We will also share our expectations with them. This is an ideal time to re-examine goals that we have set in the past. We will be able to tweak them and make the best possible use of our resources. The energy of this aspect will be in effect for the next couple of days.

All times are CDT.

Tuesday, September 22nd: The Moon spends the entire day in practical and prudent Capricorn, but she does turn void-of-course in Capricorn, at 6:13 PM, and remains so throughout the remainder of the day. Get your more important activities completed before the evening time.

The Moon conjuncts Pluto, 7:04 AM: As we awaken this morning, our emotions are brewing. We feel things very intensely and are likely to take things way too personally. Slow down and try not to drive yourself crazy.

The Moon squares Mercury, 9:56 AM: Our edgy and intense morning continues. We may have a hard time focusing and concentrating during this time. Try not to do too much multitasking. Give yourself plenty of extra time this morning.

The Moon squares Uranus, 6:13 PM: By the evening time we are ready for a break. This is a perfect time to go workout at the gym, meet friends at the bar, or just avoid any obligations. Keep your dance card open!

The Moon is now void-of-course in Capricorn, at 6:13 PM, and will remain so until she enters Aquarius, at 12:51 PM, on Wednesday afternoon.

Venus trines Uranus, 10:59 PM: Desire and freedom meet in a strange tango. We want people to love us without any exceptions or caveats. When these two planets meet, generally we are more open to the point-of-view of others. This is a productive time to work on marketing plans for your business, or to reconnect with your clientele, personally. Finding solutions to problems will be easier today because all of us will be thinking more outside of the box. And, any kind of negotiations should be enhanced by the energy of these two planets. That energy continues to affect us for the next couple of days.

All times are CDT.

Monday, September 21st: Happy International Day of Peace! The Moon starts the day in Sagittarius, but she does turn void-of-course in Sagittarius, at 3:59 AM. She enters Capricorn, the sign of the banker, at 7:33 AM, and is no longer void-of course. This short Moon void-of-course time should not affect us negatively.

The Moon trines Mars, 3:12 AM: If you are awake very early, you are feeling somewhat restless. Try not to get over stimulated or it will be hard to get back to sleep.

The Moon squares the Sun, 3:59 AM: If this energy were to occur during typical work hours, we would look for a new project to start. If you are having trouble sleeping, it may be best to just get up and get going.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Sagittarius, at 3:59 AM.

The Moon enters Capricorn, at 7:33 AM, and is no longer void-of-course. We look forward to a productive day.

The Moon sextiles Neptune, 9:52 PM: We feel very inventive and creative this evening. This is a favorable time to blog online, work on your book, or just allow yourself some time to reminisce. Personally, we feel more compassion about the people in our life.

The Moon trines Jupiter, 11:57 PM: Our pleasant evening continues. We look for distractions, either through a late-night dinner or a good movie.

All times are CDT.
